Life on the Borderline

Multimedia skills for the 21st Century

Since 2008, the Dow Jones News Fund Multimedia Training Academy based at UT El Paso has helped journalism educators acquire new skills in digital storytelling that they can use to help prepare the next generation of Latino and African-American college journalists. Professors from Historically Black Colleges and Universities and Hispanic-serving institutions spend a week at Borderzine learning multimedia skills and covering real stories of the borderlands.
